1 Versatile EST3X Life Safety Solutions See what s possible now. An EDWARDS brand.

2 It does. EST3X does more than provide life safety protection. It provides a bridge between what s needed and what can be achieved; between what s best and what s possible. EST3X transcends traditional boundaries that have for generations held system designers back. It brings a new level of user control to tightly-regulated environments, and offers economies of scale where none were thought previously to exist. EST3X is detection and alarm for the 21 st Century; it is life safety for dangerous times. It is versatile. It is powerful. It is extra bold. 3X E S T E X T R A B O L D. EST3X represents the latest generation of life safety control panels for mid to large sized applications. With large multi-message displays and innovative controls, intuitive interfaces, and bold colored cabinets these systems capture the imagination, and catch the eye. But behind the LCD display is where they really shine. New microprocessors and chipsets take full advantage of the latest advances in computing technology, leading to smarter, faster, highercapacity processing and more efficient designs. High performance processing also leads to powerful networking features and versatile digital audio functionality. The wide range of EST3X configurations include standalone operation, networking with up to eight nodes, or integration with an EST3 network comprising as many as 64 nodes complete with EST3-Sixty mass notification capabilities and display of security events.

The module also provides a connection for powering conventional two-wire smoke detector circuits on Signature Series modules. EST3X comes standard with one 3-SDC1 card installed as SLC1. An optional second 3-SDC1 card may be installed to provide SLC2, thus doubling system signaling line capacity. CLA-PS10 Class A Adapter Card is an optional card used to convert the four Class B notification appliance/ auxiliary power circuits on the power supply card to Class A. 3X-ETH Ethernet Adapter Card provides a standard 10/100 Base-T Ethernet network connection for panel programming, diagnostics, and status monitoring. Four LEDs on the adapter card indicate card and network status. 3X-NET Network Adapter Card gives an SFS1-CPU main board the ability to network with 64 nodes on an EST3 network. The card supports Class B and Class A wiring. The 3X-NET adapter card provides two independent RS 485 circuits: one for network data communications and one for digital audio communications. 3X-NET8 RS-485 Network Card gives an SFS1-CPU main board the ability to network through dedicated copper wire up to eight EST3X control panels. The card supports Class B and Class A wiring. Or... UL Listed Signaling EST3X option cards allow you to fine tune any application to deliver exactly the features you need at the lowest possible price. UL Listed Life Safety Detection 3X-FIB8 Fiber Optic Network Card gives an EST3X panel the ability to network up to eight panels. Both Class A and Class B connections are supported. The module consists of the adapter card and electronics card.

4 You can. You can deliver high performance features exactly where you need them because flexibility is where EST3X s leading edge computing power is put to best use. This generation of control panels is equally at home as the center of a simple single-building standalone system as it is as part of a sophisticated life safety network serving thousands of points across multiple buildings. Optional voice evacuation bridges the gap left by other mid-range systems, and makes these panels a cost-effective solution for mid-range applications. Networking at the speed of light Networking is among EST3X s strong suits. Highly efficient RS-485 connectivity, plus fiberoptic communications deliver faster response times and more sophisticated diagnostic capabilities, while cost-effective remote annunciation solutions keep basic monitoring and control always within reach. A simple EST3X network can comprise up to eight nodes enough to serve the needs of most campuses and larger buildings. Its ability to join an EST3 network with as many as 64 nodes extends EST3X s reach into mass notification applications, security reporting, as well as making it an ideal candidate for retrofits. Seamless System Integration EST3X borrows much from it s larger sibling, the venerable EST3 Life Safety Platform. And for good reason: by integrating with the EST3 networking and computing environment, an EST3X control panel can serve as a cost-effective remote node for extinguishing, smoke control, or even mass notification functions all within the same compliance framework. Retrofits and expansions benefit enormously from this arrangement, but programming and equipment management for new installations is equally efficient as a result of these shared resources. EST3X will accommodate up to three EST3 modules on its own rail assembly, giving it access to such proven EST3 successes as zoned amplifiers, conventional device circuits, modem communicators, and RS- 485 functions. Meanwhile, installers familiar with EST3 configuration and programming will fly through EST3X setup: the same correlation rules apply, as do diagnostics. Power that goes the distance Edwards patented Voltage Boost technology delivers a consistent 22.5 V even at low battery power. This means lighter gauge cable can be used for equivalent distances compared with conventional power supplies, or longer wire runs on the same gauge cable. Either way, this breakthrough technology saves time and equipment costs, making EST3X not only a high-performance solution but a cost-effective one as well. EST3X s four on-board Notification Appliance Circuits are fully synchronized to UL 1971 standards without the need for external modules or other electronics. It s ample 10- amp power supply is finely tuned to get the most out of Edwards widelyacclaimed low profile Genesis notification appliances. EST3X sets a new standard in front-panel life safety control interfaces. Its exclusive Speed- Touch rotary control offers nimble forward and back scrolling through events and options, while a mere tap of the control selects items with an unprecedented fluidity of motion. Its extra-large backlit display reveals up to eight concurrent messages, and switch/led strips provide ample space for meaningful custom labels. For service technicians, the display is hinged to offer convenient modular access to optional components, and for end users, large tactile control buttons instill confidence and promote quick response when time is of the essence.

5 They will. Facilities will benefit from a sophisticated system designed to function as a whole. That s because EST3X features control components and field devices engineered and manufactured by Edwards to the highest standards of interoperability. Audio that speaks for itself EST3X features a full eight channels of integrated digital audio with up to two minutes of on-board programmable message storage. Its paging microphone gives live access to local as well as remote audio functions. Auxiliary inputs are available for mass notification operations, and amplifiers may be mounted directly on the EST3X rail assembly. Economical annunciation Up to 30 R-Series LCD, LED annunciators and driver interface cards may be configured for each node on the EST3X network. No additional nodes are required for annunciation purposes. EST3X also supports EST3 network annunciators, while available driver interface cards provide cost-effective graphic annunciation solutions. Detection you can count on Designed for EST3X systems, Signature Series intelligent detectors boast diagnostic routines so accurate that a ground fault can be pinpointed down to the location of a single module address, and self-testing so reliable that routine sensitivity calibration is not required for NFPA compliance. With automatic day/ night sensitivity adjustment, field-replaca ble smoke chambers, and modular CO sensors Signature Series adds high-performance detection to EST3X s incomparable processing power. Small signals, big splash EST3X s Genesis notification appliances represent the rebirth of emergency signals with looks and features ideal for life safety and mass notification applications. Field-configurable wall strobes, horns, and chimes about the size of a deck of playing cards offer a discreet alternative to bulky devices, while speakers and ceiling models with clean modern lines blend inconspicuously with any surrounding. EST3X: the bridge between what s best and what s possible.
